The following June, the voters approved a $4.2 million bond issue for the construction of these new buildings and renovation of the existing schools.

By mid-March 1960, men and machinery had begun construction of what was to become, at the time, Valley Central Jr.-Sr. High School.

The building boasts many amenities common to other high schools in the region: a swimming pool, gymnasium with wrestling room.

Architecturally, it reflects the era of its construction, with long straight hallways laid out in a grid pattern.

The rear corridor runs all the way from the building exit near the gym on the east side to the middle school, almost a half-mile in length.
